After entering the array lens group 300, the collimated laser beams are subjected to three parts, wherein the upper part and the lower part correspond to the first array lens 301 and the second array lens 302, and a flat-top light field under an angular space forming a certain divergence angle is output; the saw-tooth array lens (third array lens 303) located at the middle part divides the laser beam into one part of laser beams at a minute angle and deflects the laser beams to form uniform point-like distribution in the angular space. The three laser beams passing through the array lens group 300, the laser beams emitted by the first array lens 301 and the second array lens 302, and the corresponding first wedge-shaped mirror 401 and second wedge-shaped mirror 402 deflect the laser beam light field in opposite directions, and the spot light field light spots emitted by the third array lens 303 in the middle are directly output, so that the combined light field with the line light spots at both sides and the spot light at the middle in fig. 11 is finally formed, namely, the combined light field with the point light spots in the middle is overlapped and output.
